Jody Shelley vs Eric Godard

The Blue Jackets are getting beat 2-0, and Jody Shelley challenges Eric Godard to try and change the momentum of the game. The camera is very late at getting to the fight, as Konopka ran into the Flames' goaltender. They each exchange a couple rights to start things off. Shelley attempts a right uppercut, then throws a right that hits the side of Godard's helmet. Shelley then, connects with a solid right, and they each exchange a few more. Shortly after that, Godard connects with a solid right of his own, then starts to lose his balance, but stays up. Godard throws a couple more rights to the back of Shelley's helmet, and the linesmen move in.

Godard has a wicked right, and if it actually connects, it more often than not ends the fight. This one was one of the "connects" bouts. When he tagged Shelley, it was over. From that point on, Shelley fought not to lose worse. Kudos for not going to his knees like Boogaard, though. That's one tough cat to stay on his feet and just hang on.

A couple nice exchanges, but the edge goes to Godard for landing that one last solid shot to the grill.
